Fig. 4. Expression level validation of targeted DEGs and metabolite profiles of AA metabolism pathway.
(A) Relative mRNA expression level of Igf2, Src, Pak6 and Mmp7 were shown to be significantly up-regulated in tumors of HBx-B Mut/shp53 injected cohort compared with empty control. Mean ± S.D.; p, unpaired student t-test, *, p ≤ 0.05, **, p ≤ 0.01, ***, p ≤ 0.001. (B) Significantly higher ion abundance of prostaglandin B2, D2 and E2, leukotriene B4 and 12-HETE in HBx experimental cohorts compared to empty control. Mean ± S.D.; p, unpaired student t-test, *, p ≤ 0.05, **, p ≤ 0.01, ***, p ≤ 0.001.
